Nicolas Feuillatte differs from other well known Champagne brand in that it is not owned by a house, but by a co-operative. Champagne co-operatives are a growing force in the industry and Nicolas Feuillatte is the world leader in their category.
The famous Blue Label is the best introduction to the Feuillatte range, but the star of the show is the Palmes d'Or, its prestige cuvee.
It is composed of 20% of the Chardonnay grape variety, for elegance and delicacy, 40% of Pinot Noir, for roundness and structure and 40% of Pinot Meunier for fruitiness. Pale gold in color, abundance of delicate bubbles. Floral aromas of fruit with subtle predominance of white fruits: pear, apple, almonds and hazelnuts. Fresh opening, smooth, pleasant and balanced. This wine is an ideal accompaniment for Breton lobster and cream sauce, sole morel mushrooms, chicken brochettes with citronella.
The Tasting Panel Rating: 92 Pts.
